Rage of Angels

This is a story about a young and brilliant attorney, Jennifer Parker, who gets involved and is torn between two men: Michael, a ruthless mafia man and Adam, a high profile politician being prepared for the US presidency. We follow Jennifer as she evolves through the years to become a highly successful attorney while the life she leads in the dark will come back to haunt her and eventually be the cause of her demise. Rage of Angels felt to me more like a movie than a book, and I mean this in a very good way. The plotline is extremely gripping and engaging and you will find yourself completely absorbed in the story which has it all: love, hate, power, corruption, violence, justice etc. I absolutely loved this book. I have always been a Sydney Sheldon fan but Rage of Angels is definitely my favorite.

Amazing

As always, this Sidney Sheldon book was excellent. He is such an amazing writer.

What a story!

Always looking for a new author I can get behind, I took the advise of many friends and read this book. WOW! Normally I am a "Romantic, man & woman meet fall in love have a problem get back together" sort of story-lover. This is more like a rollercoaster ride of life. For fear of giving anything away if you read the book but wanting anyone who will listen to read this and be inspired to read this book: Sheldon gives you fantastic character developement. You have a heroine who you can't help but want to cheer on, a supporting hero who you want to like but for the fact that he's married, and a lead hero who you want to hate but just can't because he's to dangerously enchanting. The book is about a lady lawyer and the trials (no pun intended) of her life. During the coarse of the story I kept thinking how is Sheldon going to fix "all this" by the end of the book, and the answer is simple: This is not a story where everything gets fixed. When I first read the back of the book the last line was " they find a love that is more destructive than hate". At first my interpretation was that it was a love that could destruct hate, but now after reading the book the hard part to handle was it meant the love itself was more destructive to the characters than hate was. There are a million love stories that are "Happy ever after", I've read hundreds of them, this is love with some twists and turns, but every bit as fantastic.This book is very worth reading and grips you right from the start. Sheldon has a way with words that allows you to become part of the story. I hope that you give it a go. I look forward to reading more Sheldon novels! : )

Incredible. I love Sidney.

This is the second book of Sidney that I read. Like my first one 'Bloodline', this is almost the standard definition of a 'Page-turner'. I simply sat at home for hours and read the whole book!!! Probably a lot of people have written about how great this book is, so all I can say is 'Fantastic'.

Ranking with his best!

To review an exceptional novel in just a couple of lines isn't only unfair, it is also impossible. "Rage of Angels" is an exceptional novel, ranking with his all-time best "Master of the Game". The book reads itself, because the story goes faster than the pages can turn. It is such a beautiful story that I have begun reading it again, for the fourth time. Inevitably, scenes that have remained etched in my memory due to their vividness came back as I re-encountered them, and I was once again enthralled by the magical hypnotic writing style Mr. Sheldon has over his readers. it's his biggest book up to today, and along with "Master of the Game" it is a Goliath against the Davids. It only goes further to prove that in the writing business, no-one can equal Sheldon in writing the so-called "un-put-downable" thriller. "Rage" is pure beauty, drama, romance and suspense. Another well deserved blockbuster!
